Farmall 460 clutch housing removal | continuing on with PTO damage repair

Its day two of working on the Farmall 460 PTO disaster. Its time to remove the clutch housing. Here is a step-by-step process after the tractor has been split in two on removing everything mounted to the top of the clutch housing and removing the clutch housing from the rear of the tractor. One thing I have learned in 20 plus years as a mechanic most tractors will come apart without a lot of force. When the clutch housing was not budging at the bottom, I went to the service manual again for answers. The illustration showed a bolt at the bottom inside the clutch housing but didn't talk about it in the text. I pulled the lower cover down and not much to my surprise there was a hidden bolt. Once I removed the bolt the housing fell off. Experience told me the housing was being held by a bolt somewhere as they don't normally come apart that hard. Crisis or unnecessary damage averted. We are a small 40 acre direct-to-consumer livestock farm located in Upstate Western New York. We provide pasture raised/grain fed beef, pork, chicken & eggs to our local community. We practice sustainable land practices that utilize natural methods to keep our soils/pastures healthy and our animals happy. I am the 2nd generation to live on this property after my parents purchased it in 1978. As a child my father hobby farmed a few pigs for a couple years and ran a vegetable garden. But we were not a farm by any stretch of the imagination. There were however many family dairy farms surrounding us. So naturally I was hooked with farming since I saw my first tractor. As time went on, I worked for a couple of these farms and that only fueled my love of agriculture. In 2019 I was able to move back home as my parents were ready to downsize and I was ready to try my hand at farming. Stacy and logan share the same love of farming as I do. Stacy growing up on her family's dairy farm and logans exposure of farming/tractors at a very young age. We all share this same passion to grow a quality/healthy product to share with our community.
